    In my 20’s (I’m 70 now) I worked on a 17 acre tomato farm that had a packing shed. I learned a lot about endurance and became a tomato snob. We drove a stake after 2 plants. As the plants grew we looped twine around the stakes and took out the slack. This process was repeated as the plants grew. Each morning a 16’ flatbed truck made the 45 mile trip to the Sacramento produce market destined for grocery stores. Those were the most memorable years of my life and paid my college expenses.

It’s so enjoyable AND rewarding. Being, what I call, “In The Dirt” is peaceful to me, so I’m out there as much as possible for my New England climate. Most recently, I’ve been learning all l can about extending my growing season: with a few crops, straw mulch, or a low hoop tunnel, I’ve been able to harvest a few cold tolerant vegetables right out of the ground in winter. Anyway, HAPPY GARDENING‼️🍅🥬🍠🥔🌽🥦

    @Leslie Behrens 1x1” wooden stakes separated by 2 tomato plants. Twine looped starting just above ground level and cinched to remove slack. 1 string on each side and another as the plants grow. This offers excellent support and easy access for quick picking. A machete makes quick work of the twine (biodegradable) at seasons end.

    Except for the often twisted, yet still incorrect notion, the tomato "hairs" become roots... For the record, they don't... New roots grow from the stem, but don't transform from hairs... You can even take a cutting (say, when you prime a lateral shoot) such it into water and it'll grow roots... Voila! You've just cloned a tomato plant.

    Great video! I grew up hearing a few tricks and tips, but the wackiest one my grannie did was hitting her tomato plants with a old grapevine broom. She did that when she didn't think the plants were doing their pollination properly and she said it kickstarted that process. She also would use egg shells in a large glass jar covered with water and when her plants needed a boost she would water them with that concoction. She grew some amazing, huge, beautiful, TASTY tomatoes! So she must have had something working. One comment about the plants growing. I had a cherry tomatoes plant self-start at the ends of my porch and that plant grew to about 7' long growing along the ground. My son was about 3-4 yrs old then and he had a little tunnel in that plant and when he was missing you could find him there laying on his back, picking tomatoes and eating them one by one! (he ate more of those tomatoes than my wife and I put together!!)

    your grannie knew what she was doing, sometimes you need to shake the branches to get the pollen distributed, especially since we are losing our pollinators, make sure to plant some flowers that attract pollinators. Love the story about your son.

    These videos are terrific. I never had much luck gardening which is an embarrassment since my mother was an experienced successful gardener having worked in agriculture and being a farmer’s daughter and my uncle farmed cotton in the San Joaquin Valley. After watching video decided to try again. I bought 10 tomato plants of 5 different varieties thinking if I get one plant to produce at least 1 tomato I would finally be a success and break the continuous bad luck. I followed the instructions in this video. My goodness all 10 plants are producing and we’ve already harvested a few ripe tomatoes that really have a good flavor. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! Wishing you all the best!

And I *really* scratched my head over the cracked tomatoes last summer, and now I finally have an answer!

    I always cut off all the leaves 1 foot from the ground so when I water tomatoes using garden hose, they don't get splash back (water on leaves that grow higher up). Furthermore, instead of the stuff you put underneath the plant (when planting them), simply bury a nettle which contains a lot of potassium so the plant will feed on it as roots grow. Also, if I plant/grow tomatoes too late and they don't turn red by rainy season (autumn), I collect them while they're green and keep them in dark place at home (cupboard) and they mature (turn red throughout) in about 3-4 weeks.

    I plant 200 plants minimum every year in Iowa. 4 foot high hog fence 18 inches apart. I take straw, too, support plant after it's about 2/ 2.5 feet. It's insane how many tomatoes I get. I plant them deep as well. I also learned that over the years,they don't like to be touched.

    Just getting started with my adventure into growing various Fruits and I can honestly say, there’s absolutely so much to learn that I never knew about. I’ve had problems with diseases ruining and killing my plants and trees because of the extremely wet climate in which I live. It’s my own fault because I ignorantly assumed that I could dig a hole and plant something and it will grow. 😂😂 Unfortunately, I had to lose several hundred dollars in saplings especially before I decided to research, which brought me here. I’ve learned some valuable information during your videos and for that, a Big Thank You. 😊😊

    Snap peas are really easy. Plant early spring , rt after ground thaws, if in Northern climate . Put a row of seeds directly in ground. Expect them to grow up a PC of fencing n harvest all summer . Zucchini and ell peppers are also very dependable n both can be frozen or dehydrated to use all winter. Stir fries etc.

    I live in northern Wisconsin and our growing season is quite short so I’m always open to growing tips. To assure that water gets to the roots, I cut off the bottom of plastic water bottles and bury them upside down right next to my plants with only the open bottom sticking out. I can then fill the buried bottle with water each time I water my plants and the moisture goes right to the roots. My harvest has been very successful using this watering method.

    Good stuff all. Started gardening in the 70s, thanks to following mom around in the yard as a young kid. Been a fan of the Rodale Encyclopedia, and mom's tips dating from the great depression. When she noticed me using a store bought fatty acid insecticide her approval was humbling, saying she used to just toss out left-over dish water on tomato plants to keep the worms down. So for decades I've sprayed water with a tablespoon of dish soap on plants and never had worms. In my home state of Arizona I used to have Praying Mantises and Lady Bugs mailed to me, since they were hard to find. Also used Bacillus Thuringiensis in solution to starve out worms and other critters. More sage wisdom from mom later. Props to you for yours. Always leaning. Just an old Desert Rat

    Be mindful of the pH of not only the soil, but the water you apply. In my area (Spring, TX), water pH is 8.5 , which neutralizes the soil acidity and turns the soil caustic.. I recently discovered this, which explains why so many of my plantings have died. I capture rainwater for potted plants and apply acidity to the soil periodically.

    I had great tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants for years. We amended our compost soil with pigeon guano (a neighbor raced pigeons and gave us buckets of guano weekly). We also planted marigolds and garlic to eliminate any hornworms--they hate the smell. Dill, basil, and rosemary are also useful to keep the pests away.
